Study aim
The Efficacy Of Self-Treatment Maneuver At Home In The Recovery Of Patients With Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo
Design
A Controlled Randomized Trial. A Parallel Group Design Of 86 Patients(Phase 3). SAS Software Version 9 Was Used For Randomization.
Settings and conduct
This randomized clinical trial (RCT) study was conducted on 86 patients with complaints of vertigo, who were diagnosed with benign positional vertigo (BPPV) by history and performing maneuvers. This study will be carried out in 1402 at the otolaryngology clinic of Amir Al Momenin in Rasht. The samples will be selected from among the people who referred to this department with the initial complaint of dizziness and imbalance and stated BPPV symptoms in the history taking. The rehabilitation treatment of patients with BPPV in the second group (intervention) is done using maneuver positioning training in self-treatment maneuvers at home in BPPV patients.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria: Patients Aged Between 18 To 90 Years In Whom BPPV Was Diagnosed Using The Dix-Hallpike Maneuver And Clinical Signs And Symptoms Exclusion Criteria: Patients whose cause of vertigo is other than BPPV.

Intervention groups

Description
Intervention group: the rehabilitation treatment of BPPV patients in the intervention group is done by using self-treatment positioning maneuver maneuvers at home . In this research, modified semont maneuver will be used. Turn your head about 45 degrees away from the side affected by bppv. In this way, patients are advised to sit on the edge of the bed, put two pillows on both sides, and first put the hand under the affected ear, an angle of about 30 to 45 degrees is given upwards and turn the head 45 degrees away from the affected side. Lie down on the affected side quickly , while the ear is down and the eyes and chin are up. Wait for 20 seconds (or in case of dizziness until the episode of dizziness ends), then quickly returns to the sitting position. Then the patients should perform the same maneuver in reverse to the opposite side. They does this 2 times on the right side and 2 times on the left side (2 times per day for 3 days).

His head is turned 45 degrees to the right and remains in this position for 15 to 20 seconds. Then the head is turned to the left at an angle of 45 degrees and remains in this position for 10 to 20 seconds.
